Isn’t this more Government Creep into the private decisions of a family? No matter how compassionate and loving we think ourselves to be, we online posters here are not going to be there to take in each and every child with this disability.
I say we leave it up to the parents and their doctor instead of the Government. I have to politely agree to disagree with many others here.

Would you say that about a born child with a disability or only the unborn?

India has tried (unsuccessfully) to legislate a halt to aborting of female babies. Doctors just “unofficially” give the heads-up to the parents so the murders may proceed uninterrupted...

"Isn’t this more Government Creep into the private decisions of a family?"

Most conspiracies to commit murder are conducted in private, and let's be honest, a, "family decision," to abort a child is just that.

If you do a DNA check, and find XXY genes, you have found a Downs child.

Not to sound pedantic, but Down's is a different trisomy than what you're describing.

XXY? I think you're thinking of Klinefelter's.
